Ballachurry Reserve, Saturday Work Party.

Weather permitting, our next work party will be on Saturday 5th October between 10 and 1 as usual ( or whatever you can manage in that time scale). The priority task will be cutting back brambles where they are spreading into the boundary ditch, round the hazel trees and through the willows etc. as in previous years. This is not "the light summer snip" we have been doing recently so you will need work gloves to protect your hands from scratches etc. You may also need eye protection in places, so bring your own if you have them, otherwise we have a few spare pairs. Usual tools : secateurs, loppers, shears etc. if you can bring your own but we do have some spares.

A few other routine tasks might be cutting back a few branches of willow which are starting to  overhang  the pavement and the usual ramp and boardwalk work.

Refreshments provided at half time.  BYOM ( bring your own mug! I'll have a few spares if you forget) I'll confirm whether or not the work party is to go ahead after the 8 a.m. weather forecast on Friday so please check your email or the Blog before setting out on Saturday.

Look forward to seeing a few of you there. 

Sheila
